At this point I might start the every other year schedule so I will probably skip 2016.

Let me know

If you've never been to a show before, you owe it to yourself. It's a lot of fun.

Marc.......Not going. I don't have much interest in audio shows any more. I don't care for the crowds, the noise levels and noise intrusion from competing rooms, and the expense to pleasure ratio is heavily weighted on the expense side for an experience I've had plenty of already. I am so pleased with my sound systems and their performance I have no desire to spend time window shopping other equipment I have no real interest in owning. There will always be plenty of photos and published opinions to read that allow me to vicariously witness the event without actually participating. That's good enough for me.

I understand. There's probably only a handful of systems there that I'd find more compelling than mine. However, I learn a lot and get to meet industry leaders and legends. I'll never forget getting drunk with John curl. Can't do that sitting at home.

Marc, I may attend. I want to see/listen to some different speakers I may consider upgrading to.

Marc.......Yes, that sounds like it could have been fun. John's come a long ways from mixing sound for San Francisco bands. I wounder if he ever tasted the punch bowl concoctions that always seemed to be around the Grateful Dead shows at Winterland. .
